Tesla Cafe

Wow, I’m so glad I stumbled upon this gem in the Annex. We saw a sign on bloor, good thing they had one out or we would have never even noticed it.
I’ve been here twice so far, and everything has been amazing. I really love chick peas –and in love with their house roasted chick peas they give you when you sit down.
They’re burgers are sooo good. Like, scrumptiously delicious. Super fat and moist on the inside. My just regular burger came with these little deep fried pickles! What a great touch!
Second time I came I had the short rib poutine. The red wine gravy was incredible. I wasn’t expecting it to come with so much meat but was greatly impressed. I think it could be in a large bowl rather than a plate though.
My partner had the fried chicken sandwich and he really enjoyed it. It was quite spicy and super moist inside.
My mouth is watering right now, be right back, going to Tesla.

Excellent service — waiters are very friendly and hospitable. The ambiance and space is quaint with a great patio at the back. Food and drink are reasonably priced. A must try is their Brussels sprouts!

I was in Toronto visiting and heard about this great new pub/​restaurant on Euclid. Had dinner there with a friend last Tuesday. We ate inside as the patio was full. Not surprising as the patio is really inviting — clean, lovely greenery and private. Inside was quiet with comfortable seating at gorgeous wooden tables. The food and service was terrific. We had the calamari with a beet salad and brussel sprout salad to start. Amazing!!! Then my friend ordered the pork belly BLAT and I had the Cobb burger. Both were incredible. The best food I have had in a long time. Kudos to the chef! The bartender, owner and server were helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely return on my next visit to Toronto. Recommend highly.

Tesla Café…7 people had dinner excellent, thoughtful preparation of food by the chef. We had calamari with Chinese 5 spice powder, fried pickles, the best Cobb burger ever with just the right amount of blue cheese, superb Brussels sprout/​bacon salad, an extremely tasty veggie burger, roasted beet salad and grilled cheese made especially for our 3 year old companion. Superb ambience, excellent dark and stormies made with a specially brewed local ginger beer. The bartender/​server is extremely knowledgeable about the food/​drink. They have been opened 2.5 weeks go before you won’t be able to get a seat.

Cute new pub, great back patio and friendly staff. Menu is traditional and great local breweries on tap.
